calluses/blisters...OUCH!!!

lately i've been getting alot of blisters.my dad(whose been playing acoustic guitar for 10 years) said that after a while your fingers start to grow calluses and you're fingers dont get blisters anymore cuz the calluses make them thicker/stronger...is this true?and i've been playing for 6 months,i play about and hour or 2 a day,how long do u think it will take for me to stop getting blisters,it hurts right now while im typing!i play a little slap and alot of normal.

Arent there enough thread on this?
But anyway just try and let them heal. Stop playing for like 4 days of however long it takes for them to heal. in the mean time write songs, do homework, get a job or do somthing constructive

my friend that irish dances says he used to get crazy blisters on his feet when he started and had to wait a few days for them to heal,but he told me to put antibiotic cream on them and then put band-aids on them.he said that now he has invisble calluses now and it doesnt hurt anymore.so im gonna try that stuff.bye

I`ve never ever had a blister from playing bass(so far).I do have some thickening of the index finger pad but not hard core.Usually I play a lot too,just wondering why I`ve never gotten the famous bassist`s callouses?I used to get sore in my fingers(joints, knuckles)but not anymore.Gee....maybe I`m not intense enough?
